At Swift Nature Camp, your child’s safety, happiness, and growth are our top priorities. Our First-Time Camper Program is designed specifically for children who are trying overnight camp for the first time. Every camper has an adult mentor who checks in regularly, helping them feel comfortable, included, and excited about the summer ahead. We combine hands-on learning with a fun, nurturing environment, where children explore nature, care for animals in our Nature Center, and enjoy over 40 classic camp activities — from hiking and canoeing to arts and crafts, wildlife exploration, and team adventures.
